Fragment of the City wall belonging to the second precinct (around present day Small Square).
The second precinct was built in the first half of the 13th century, being infact an extension to the first precinct around Huet Square, built in the late 12th century.
When the fortification lost it's role, buildings were built on and around it, some fragments like this being integrated into the new buildings.
This segment can be seen at the adress Avram Iancu St. No.5.
